Live Blogging Radio Interview

Pat Cambell is a friend and supporter of Terri Schiavo. He's also a top talk radio host in Orlando FL (AM540 WFLA). Richard and I joined him this morning and I'm presently fielding questions from callers.

The first caller objected to our support of Terri on the basis of the sanctity of marriage. This despite Michael Schiavo's live-in girlfriend and their two children. I think the sanctity of life comes first.

Lost the second caller. Thanks to the third caller for suggesting that Judge Greer be removed. There has been a push to impeach Greer here and here.

Several callers brought up the apparent conflict of interest and the hidden agenda of the pro-euthanasia crowd.

Another caller first denies Michael has committed adultery and then asserts Michael is a hero and loves his wife. We certainly welcome disagreement because it allows us to correct misconceptions about Terri.

Hopefully I'll have a chance to recommend to listeners that they contact their federal representatives in support of the Incapacitated Persons Act. Also, FL residents can ask Jeb Bush to bring Terri into protective custody during the DCF investigation (Governor Jeb Bush, (850) 488-4441, jeb.bush@myflorida.com).

Finally, FLordia House Bill 701 and Senate Bill 2128 will protect Terri and others in her situation. Follow the links above for a list of phone numbers and contact info.

Terri's execution by starvation and dehydration is scheduled to begin this Friday. Her crime? Being brain damaged on a sunny day. How ironic that her agony and suffering will coincide perfectly with Holy week. Shame on us all if we allow this to happen!
